Sheffield PechaKucha #20

Event technical production by Stream7 for the 20th edition of this world wide phenomenon.

Brief

PechaKucha Nights (PK) are global, informal, fun gatherings where creative people get together and share their ideas, works and thoughts in the PechaKucha 20x20 format. PechaKucha 20x20 is a simple presentation format where guest speakers show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images advance automatically with the speaker talking along to the images.

The 20th edition of the Sheffield PechaKucha Night was hosted at Yellow Arch Studios and Stream7 working alongside Steel AV were commissioned to provide the technical production for the event.

Solution

Before the event Pete Amos Stream7 project manager worked with the client to produce the show including scheduling, staff and venue liaison and collating all the media for the event. On event day the Stream7 provided a crew of 5 comprising of a Technical Manager, video engineer, audio engineer and a two person film crew all working together on this fast paced event.

Result

By using a Stream7 Project Manager along with a dedicated on-day event team the event ran incredibly smoothly. Video and PowerPoint was displayed on a large screen in the venue and our audio engineer created a perfect sound for a special guest singer. The event was filmed with a 3 camera setup which will be used to create a Video On Demand online version of the event.

The show was greatly received by the client and the audience ensuring Stream7 will continue to provide support for this event moving forwards.
